Testimonials

I write in appreciation of Dr. Alter to whom my wife and I have been going for many years. He is the finest dentist I have been to. He is gentle, conservative in his treatments and technically brilliant. Where necessary, he refers patients to a great network of other dentists for specialty work. He often contacts me to see how problem teeth are getting along which shows how much he cares for his patients. He is very funny and interesting which makes visits a double pleasure!

“As a terrified product of the worst of British dentistry I first went to Steve in the mid 80's. Nobody else has touched my teeth since ... nor will they. He completely cured me of my fear of dentists - and I still have most of my teeth! I can think of no better endorsement.”
